![]() Four ghosts are also included in the set, like the Library Ghost with a double-sided head to reveal her monstrous face. ![]() Now all Ghostbusters come with printed arms, and Peter Venkman even has a slimed torso. The set comes with 10 exclusive minifigures, with which you can easily populate the building. There is even a firefighters’ pole to quickly climb down from the top floor. The building can be unfolded to reveal lots of recognizable scenes, like the slimy encounter with one of the included ghosts (Slimer), or the shiny Animated Toaster from Ghostbusters II. But we know better! It perfectly represents the classic firehouse in which the Ecto-1 is stored. To a mere layman, it looks like a regular firehouse with a sidewalk, with a pretty dull color scheme of grey and a tint of red. There it is, the original Ghostbusters’ headquarters! This is the biggest set of the theme, with almost 5,000 pieces. The set comes with four printed curved slopes with the Ghostbusters logo on it, which is used in two other sets as well. Its interior is quite simple and can host third minifigures – one in the back and two (although very tightly) in the front. In fact, every minifigure has a unique torso as their initials are printed on the chest. The torsos are nicely designed with a front and back print. You can even display the minifigures together on a small display stand! Overall, it’s beautifully designed and starts the theme off greatly.Īll minifigures are exclusive to this set and feature a proton pack (with printed pieces) on their backs to capture the ghosts. We see the original iterations of the four main characters, and a slightly larger than minifigure-sized Ecto-1, the famous car from the 1984 film. With that, it is also the first ever set to feature the name “LEGO Ideas”, instead of the former “LEGO Cuusoo” line. This first set is the sixth LEGO Ideas set to have been released by The LEGO Group. RRP: $49.99 | €49.99 Year Released: 2014 Pieces: 508 Minifigures: 4 (all exclusive to this set) The theme has a lot to offer and might even inspire you to purchase its only currently available set. ![]() In this article, we will explore the various iterations of both locations and vehicles based on Ghostbusters. Only two are officially listed as so, whilst there are a total of 7 sets inspired by the original film, its sequels and spinoff. As stated in the introduction, not all sets have been released under the theme “LEGO Ghostbusters”. Featuring Peter Venkman, Ray Stanz, Egon Spengler, and Winston Zeddemore, the four main characters are represented in minifigure form. Who you gonna call? GHOSTBUSTERS! LEGO Ghostbusters brings the 1984 film to life for the first time in 2014. This “theme” – which wasn’t always a dedicated theme – is one of the first fan-designed pop culture projects actually released in stores. It is no surprise that the influence of large communities behind these franchises makes it easier to reach those 10,000 votes needed to be reviewed by The LEGO Group. In the quarterly rounds of LEGO Ideas, we often see fans replicating their favorite movie scenes and characters using the LEGO brick. Obviously there’s going to be a really high chance that it sells out before the 21st BUT I don’t think the Afterlife Poster is a compelling enough deal.LEGO is known for its affiliation with many franchises, most of which are inspired or based on pop culture. With Black Friday coming up (from 21st November onwards), which includes a raft of promos such as the Dickens Tribute set, Double Points and a Teal LEGO brick… I’d say take a gamble and wait out to get the most bang for your buck. Now under normal circumstances, I’d highly encourage you to pick this up immediately, as I foresee it selling out eventually BUT… If you order today, you’ll also receive an exclusive Ghostbusters Afterlife poster for VIP members. This is a cracker of a set, especially for LEGO Ghostbusters fans and is a fantastic display model for pop culture and movie fans. The highly anticipated 10274 Ghostbusters Ecto-1 is now available online in Australia, the UK and Europe and in the US as soon as it ticks over to 15 November 2020. Who you gonna call? Probably the bank to increase your credit card limit as it’s been an expensive year for LEGO!
